Last night (the 13th of October, 2012) we celebrated 20 years since the merger of St Silas and North Balwyn Uniting Cricket Clubs by announcing two “teams of the decade”. It was a well attended event and it was fantastic to see some past greats of the club return to Gordon Barnard Reserve for the night.

Tony Miles (captain), Geoff Allen, Kevin Baker, Rod Binion, Matthew Blackman, Paul Campain, Simon Datson, Cameron Dowling, Daryl Gove, Brett Poppins, Dale Rogers, Darren Ward
Team of the Decade 2001-2011
